Allmendstrasse

Allmendstrasse goes from Giesshübelstrasse to Maneggbrücke. It is named after the word Allmend(e) (along which it goes), which means common land. More specifically, this refers to the Allmend Brunau, which is a large open space where people (and dogs!) can enjoy a bit of nature and a some sport installations.
